Thanks to its latest new parents, AKG is now touching three major continents, but that’s a story for another day. Their new condition good old open-back over-ear K701 headphones are currently down to 128 euro with free shipping in Germany by Amazon Germany actual with up to three pairs per customer at the sale price. The price is such that the used options over there cost more than the new condition. They average 3.7 out of 5 based on 210+ customer reviews over there.

Note that AKG has released newer models since, including those Massdrop exclusives, so if you are not up to date with their open-back line-up, the forums and the search-engines are your friends.

Not far off in price, their K702 open over-ears go for 122 euro but they are currently restricted to Amazon Germany Prime members only…

AKG is now touching three continents. An Austrian company, purchased by Harman Kardon, which in turn got purchased by Samsung. So it has local affiliations regardless. Which brings us to Amazon Germany, offering, for Prime members only at the moment, the new condition open-back over-ear AKG K612 PRO headphones for 90 euro.

Not a bad price if you happen to be looking for open under 100 euro from the EU. Note that there are plenty of models in this AKG line, so research them all if you are not already familiar with them…

Actual DJ headphones! The new condition AKG K167 dj headphones under the Tiesto name, closed-back and over-ear, are currently on sale for $50 with free shipping at B&H Photo. The entry-point in this line is the K67. The one on sale is the K167. There’s also a K267.

The new condition AKG N60 NC (active noise cancelling) closed-back on-ears are currently on sale for $80 with free shipping as a Black Friday doorbuster at the official Harman Audio online store. Harman owns AKG and Samsung owns Harman. And the Reptilians own everything 😉

A marketplace seller fulfilled by Amazon is offering the new condition open-back over-ear AKG K702 headphones for $180 with free shipping, but depending on your location, you may be able to get a better deal if you shop from Amazon Germany where they currently go for 117 euro with VAT/customs included for the whole European Union. The price is so good that the used options sell for more (!) there…

For a limited time only, B&H Photo is offering the new condition AKG N90Q Reference class ANC over-ear closed-back headphones for a flat $1000 with free shipping and handling. Interesting choice to add ANC to a reference-priced headphone but if all the headphones were the same, it would be more boring 🙂

One of the latest (and recurring) deals at clearance specialist A4C (All 4 Cellular) is the seller-refurbished dual-name SAmsung AKG S9*/S8* in-ears offered for $8 with free US shipping. Everything at A4C comes with free shipping even the sub-$5 items they carry. But obviously it’s not Prime-like speed, especially if you are not on the East Coast.

These are wired in-ears. Samsung now owns AKG but this relationship began before Samsung purchased AKG’s parent company “Harman Kardon”. A4C offers a 90-day warranty for their seller-refurbished items….

They went for $10 when they were a daily deal, so if you don’t need them right away, you can wait if/until they become a daily deal again…

One of the sub-$100 frequently recommended headphones, the good old AKG K81 closed-back on-ear headphones are now on sale again for $29 with free shipping at B&H Photo. Orders will ship next week, which is still much faster than Massdrop 🙂

If you are a boldly going early adopter or reviewer, a marketplace seller called Adecco has replacement earpads for these (along with AKG K518 and MDR-NC6) for $4, with the order fulfilled by Amazon. There are no customer reviews, but they have three pictures of the earpads. Given the price, they are an Add-On item, so you must needs place an order of $25+.

Mayhaps AKG needs to license “Don’t Stop Believing” and turn it into “Don’t Stop AKGing” 🙂 For about the price of the vinyl album containing that song, you can buy from the official Harman online store the refurbished AKG K514 Mark II semi-open headphones. That’s $20 with free shipping and handling and they come with a 1-year warranty. They have the iconic “two story” headband.

We begin our weekly Harman-AKG-JBL sale round-up with new condition action. The official Harman Audio store has a 20% off sale on the AKG N-series which is currently a mix of in-ears and on-ears. The price you see is the price you pay, there’s no coupon/rebate. A total of seven models are participating. If you are not familiar with their price ranges, do price check, as AKG prices can be all over the place.

On the over-ear front, the refurbished closed-back AKG K545 are on sale for $100 with free 2nd-day air shipping at the official Harman store in your choice of four different color schemes, including the modestly space-age looking “Green-Z” color. Limit up to five per customer at the sale price. This too is part of their weekly Monday through Sunday deals.

If the Harman sale is too loud with all the rumbling in the warehouse, mayhaps some ANC is in order 😉 The certified refurbished (recertified) AKG K490NC On-Ears are on sale as well, going for $60 with free 2nd-day shipping in the black color scheme, with up to five units per customer.

Their weekly deals typically run Monday through Sunday night, unless sold out and such.

In a parallel sale at the official Harman store, the new condition AKG K171 Mark II On-Ears are on sale for $75 with free 2nd-day air shipping with up to ten units per customer at the sale price. This is only available in the black color scheme as they are not consumer-tier headphones.

The official Harmon/JBL stores are back with their new weekly offers, including the new condition AKG K141 Mark II semi-open on-ears going for $70 with free 2nd-day Air shipping in the black color scheme. Up to ten units per customer at the sale price. No coupon needed – the price you see is the price you pay.

Another one of the new four-figure headphones is now available for pre-ordering, it is the AKG N5005 available for pre-ordering for $1000 at B&H Photo. There is no release estimate at the moment. This too surfaced while updating our on-going Headphone Tracker…

If you are a fan of the KLEER digital wireless technology (as opposed to RF or IR found in lower cost products), also part of the weekly Harman website deals is the recertified AKG K840 KL On-Ears going for $120 with free 2nd-day air and a 1-year warranty. Limit up to five per customer.

I didn’t know AKG too had Kleer technology headphones. Sennheiser used them in their RS160 and above previous-generation wireless but they switched apparently to their own technology with the newer RS**5 models. This being an on-ear is a more mobile setup, with the transmitter looking more like a smartphone power-bank than a 50s scifi ground control device 🙂

No, we have not turned into an AKG blog 🙂 The weekly deals of the Harman/JBL online stores have just come out and they happen to have a handful of headphones this week, headlined mayhaps by the recertified AKG K3003i In-Ears going for $500 with free 2nd-day air shipping and a 1-year warranty. The sales typically run Monday up until Sunday (or earlier if sold out). Limit up to five per customer for this model during this sale.

The White Walker color scheme of the AKG K845 BT closed-back over-ear bluetooths is on sale for $100 with free 2nd-day shipping and a 1-year warranty at the official Harman Audio store. This is part of their weekly sales which start on Mondays. The Night Watch (black) color scheme is not sale.

Monday is here which means another round of weekly deals at the official Harman/JBL stores. The sales including the recertified AKG K-495 ANC On-Ears going for $70 with free 2nd-day air and 1-year warranty.

Many of the six customer reviews there complain of bad construction and breakage, so keep that in mind, especially if you are planning to use them in adventurous situations or have a bigger head (the full extension puts more pressure on a fragile headphone). I’ve had a different model of their on-ears and it just broke off at the extension area without any rough handling. Because of my not so tiny head, I had to wear it fully extended. So if you hate returns/exchanges, this is a higher risk item.

Not to be confused with Dakini bliss, Dekoni earpads hope to offer bliss for your ears 😉 A couple of them are fully unlocked at members-only Massdrop running for the next 3+ days (from blog-posting time) with free US shipping as follows:

These ship in mid-March from the vendor, with all sales final as usual. By “all sales final” they mean there are no returns for “satisfaction”, only if the product is defective, broken, missing parts, etc.
